Firni
Description
The recipe won't take much time. This delicious, creamy dessert made from rice flour, widely popular in the East, is very easy to prepare. Light, delicate, and incredibly tasty, firni is always garnished with cinnamon, creating various patterns. Each design carries a special meaning—a symbolic wish for the guest. Traditionally, rose water gives firni its distinctive flavor and aroma, but in our case, we'll use vanilla sugar instead. Let's make this interesting dessert. Serve it chilled.
